Why all the fuss?

As unlikely as it may seem, Eileen will soon turn 50, beating many of us to the half century mark. The dread of the approaching birthday has been the subject of conversation for some time. Now that it is here, she still looks great and despite the normal wear and tear, such as eyesight, she remains remarkably intact.

To make this a memorable time, I am asking her many friends and family to post comments about her life and friendship and of course to encourage her into the next 50.

So, please log in, (sorry it requires a user name and password), and leave her with what ever comments you care to share, or email comments to: mappleget.eileenis50@blogger.com. Automatically your email will be published to this site along with any attachments such as pictures.

Thanks, Mark

RE: Hello from the Twin Cities

Hey Eileen!
 
I think there must be some mistake! You don't LOOK 50! (I just saw your Christmas card, so I know what I'm talking about).
 
Congratulations! One of God's greatest gifts to us is time on the earth to enjoy those he has given us to love. You have been blessed with a beautiful family and good health so you can nurture them.
 
Here's to your next 50!
 
(Just one thing -- promise me you'll stay fashionable and trendy!)
 
Love;
 
Lisa Holt

P.S. I'm counting on the cold weather to stave off wrinkles. I'll let you know that works in a few years.
